Tim Ryan is Into Yoga and Meditation and there are Pics that the Right Wing will use to ATtack him

there is an article on Ryan and Yoga which refers to him as moonbeam. this is one of the things they think of when they think of the evil liberals and san francisco and all the other terms they throw out.

(i don't have a problem with this and i see it as a positive since he gets people involved in healthier lifestyle but the argument he uses against pelosi is the same thing that would be used against him based on this)

I can see the ads now.

Are you sure he's a new enough face? He doesn't even have a man bun.

I love yoga and spent 20 minutes doing Prana breathing before going online!


Namaste!

As Tim Ryan.

In fact, I no longer use a meditation pillow on the floor in lotus asana - I do my meditation in a wide comfy armchair.

I won't be posting pictures!

They'll accuse Ryan of being on the fringe of hippiedom.
